Mouse pancreas tissue slice culture facilitates long-term studies of exocrine and endocrine cell physiology in situ. [PDF]
Studies on pancreatic cell physiology rely on the investigation of exocrine and endocrine cells in vitro. Particularly, in the case of the exocrine tissue these studies have suffered from a reduced functional viability of acinar cells in culture.

ABSTRACT Background/Purpose Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a common complication after pancreatic surgery and its mechanisms remain incompletely understood. While the diameter of the main pancreatic duct is well‐known to be a risk factor of POPF, the impact of branch duct's (BD) anatomy is not known.

Gene delivery to pancreatic exocrine cells
Background Effective gene transfer to the pancreas or to pancreatic cells has remained elusive although it is essential for studies of genetic lineage tracing and modulation of gene expression. Different transduction methods and viral vectors were tested

VPA and TSA delay the development of exocrine pancreas.
The development of exocrine pancreas was analyzed at 72 hpf, 96 hpf and 120 hpf. GFP fluorescence in embryos of the ElastaseA-GFP transgenic line: controls (A-D), embryos treated with 0.2 μM TSA (D-F). White arrows indicate the exocrine pancreas.

The Important Role of p21-Activated Kinases in Pancreatic Exocrine Function
The p21-activated kinases (PAKs) are a conserved family of serine/threonine protein kinases, which are effectors for the Rho family GTPases, namely, Rac/Cdc42. PAKs are divided into two groups: group I (PAK1–3) and group II (PAK4–6).

Myeloid sarcoma presenting as an isolated pancreatic mass in a 3‐year‐old child
Abstract Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is an extramedullary tumor of myeloid precursor cells, frequently associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and rarely occurring in isolation. We present a child with obstructive jaundice secondary to a pancreatic head mass.

The Cystic Fibrosis of Exocrine Pancreas [PDF]
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein is highly expressed in the pancreatic duct epithelia and permits anions and water to enter the ductal lumen. This results in an increased volume of alkaline fluid allowing the highly concentrated proteins secreted by the acinar cells to remain in a soluble state.

Extended pancreas donor program - the EXPAND study rationale and study protocol [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Simultaneous pancreas kidney transplantation (SPK), pancreas transplantation alone (PTA) or pancreas transplantation after kidney (PAK) are the only curative treatment options for patients with type 1 (juvenile) diabetes mellitus with or ...

Abstract Objectives Shwachman–Diamond syndrome (SDS) is an inherited bone marrow failure disorder, and its endoscopic phenotype is poorly defined. We sought to characterize endoscopic findings in patients with genetically confirmed SDS. Methods Retrospective registry study of 45 patients with biallelic Shwachman–Bodian–Diamond syndrome mutations and ...
